What do you do on a weekend? This past weekend, I ventured over the mountain to my friend Dee Dee's house.
She and I love love love yard sales. This time of year is kinda early in her area, since there is still some snow here and there. We decided we would travel to the city, Boise Idaho, which is about 120 miles south of her house. Seems like a long way to go just for a yard sale doesn't it? LOL We don't care! It is warmer in that country so nothing was going to detain us!
Before we go anywhere, Ms. Dee Dee thinks I need a new hairdoo. It's getting so long and unfortunately a little thin as well. Time to try something else. Here we have the before and after shots. I think I like it!
With a new doo and a pocket full of money, off we go like a dirty shirt! We didn't get 5 miles down the road and screech, the brakes go on and we both holler "yard sale!!!" first one of the day is always fun. I have been patiently looking and waiting for over a year now for a fly rod, well looky looky what I scored for $10.
The drive to Boise follows the Payette River. With spring thaw the river is full and running very swiftly. I didn't see not one kyacker out there this weekend.
Second stop, another yard sale!! Girls just wanna have fun. Almost bought this guy to bring home to keep me company. He's a real cutie. :) My kind of guy, strong silent type.
We hit every yard sale, second hand shop we could muster the strength for. Time for lunch! Ever been to a "Texas Roadhouse"? Yum, the food is amazing, the wait staff are a hoot. When ever a certain song comes on all the staff line up and do a line dance and whoop it up. Such fun. I had the 1/2 rack ribs, and Dee Dee had the prime rib. Enough food to last us for a couple days!
Oh my, where do I bite it first! lol
With full tummies, we venture off to the Sportsmans Warehouse across the street so I can purchase new lead line and a few flys for my new fishin pole. :) I am a happy camper. It was a successful day in our book. We made it home before dark, like good little girls. I hope you had a wonderful weekend.
